Patent EP-0665425-A3 (EP)
Title: Spectral modulation sensor.
Inventor: SAASKI ELRIC W
IPC: A61B5/1459
Filed: 1985-06-25
Abstract: Physical changes induced in the spectral modulation sensor's optically resonant structure by the physical parameter being measured cause microshifts of its reflectivity and transmission curves, and of the selected operating segment(s) thereof being used, as a function of the physical parameter being measured. The operating segments have a maximum length and a maximum microshift of less than about one resonance cycle in length for unambiguous output from the sensor. The input measuring light wavelength(s) are selected to fall within the operating segment(s) over the range of values of interest for the physical parameter being measured. The output light from the sensor's optically resonant structure is spectrally modulated by the optically resonant structure as a function of the physical parameter being measured. The spectrally modulated output light is then converted into analog electrical measuring output signals by detection means. In one form, a single optical fiber carries both input light to and output light from the optically resonant structure. When more than one input measuring light wavelength is used, means may also be provided to divide the input light wavelengths into two portions and then take the ratio thereof. This provides several advantages simultaneously, such as enabling longer operating segments and microshifts to be used for greater sensitivity or detection range, and also eliminates certain errors caused by fluctuations in input light intensity or by changes in light intensity caused by optical fiber bending and optical fiber connectors.

Abstract: An imaging apparatus has a support shoe
with an at-least-partially cylindrical inner surface
for receiving a recording media, a rotor which is
simultaneously rotatable about and linearly
translated along a fixed axis, a write head assembly
carried by the rotor to write on recording media
received on the inner surface of the support shoe, a
member having an arcuate outer periphery and
supported within the support shoe for movement along
the fixed axis, and electrically conductive bristles
extending radially from the periphery of the member
toward the received media to dissipate electrostatic
charge build up on the media. The member is
supported for movement with the rotor, and
preferably leads the rotor as the rotor moves along
the axis during a write operation. The bristles
extend radially from the periphery of the member and
are spaced from the received media to create an
electrical stress in free air space. The bristles
are attached to an electrically conductive strip
that is attached by adhesive to the periphery of the
member to lie flat against the periphery, and the
bristles bend away from the member.

(FF 1 ), respectively, and operation amplitude levels of
respective differential signal outputs of the flip-flops

Abstract: It is the object of the invention to provide an optical
signal receiving apparatus, which is used in a narrow band WDM
optical transmission system, and never misguidedly receives an
adjacent optical signal, when an optical signal to be received
is down. An optical signal to be received is extracted from
plural WDM optical signals by an optical BPF, a central
wavelength of which coincides with the wavelength of the optical
signal to be received, and converted into an electrical signal
by the O/E converter. A tone-signal extracting circuit extracts
the frequency component of the tone-signal, which is superposed
on the optical signal with the wavelength equal to the central
wavelength of the optical BPF. If the extracted signal level of
the tone signal is lower than that of a predetermined standard
voltage, a comparator supplies a reset signal to an electrical
signal decision circuit. If the optical signal with a desired
wavelength is down, the output level of a tone-signal extracting
circuit becomes low, and the electrical signal decision circuit
is reset. Then, even if the clock signal of the adjacent optical
signal is extracted, the adjacent optical signals is not
misguidedly discriminated and regenerated by the electrical
signal decision circuit.

Abstract: The present invention, in one embodiment, is a system for performing
image reconstruction from unfiltered scan data acquired in a tomographic scan.
More specifically, the system implements an algorithm for unfiltered scan data
(58) which eliminates the requirement that the scan data for a particular view be
fully filtered for image reconstruction. Particularly, unfiltered scan data for a
base view is fully filtered (60) to generate filtered scan data for the base view.
At least a portion of the filtered scan data for the base view is then used for
subsequent views. Particularly, for a subsequent view, only the high frequency
components (62) of unfiltered scan data for that view are filtered (68) with a
short filter. The filtered high frequency components then are added (70) to the
low frequency components of the filtered base view scan data to estimate fully
filtered scan data for the subsequent view.

polling signal having a specified bandwidth. The controller
includes an allocation unit configured to allocate bandwidths
to a plurality of nodes in a polling list, each node being
capable of storing at least one descriptor representing a
respective polling signal. The nodes are arranged in a binary
tree structure having a plurality of leaf nodes, a root node,
and at least one level of intermediate nodes which are
successor nodes for the leaf nodes and predecessor nodes for
the root node. The allocation unit is configured to store
variables P and S for each node, where P is a maximum
bandwidth of polling signals entering a node from predecessor
nodes, and S is a sum of bandwidths of polling signals
represented by descriptors stored in the node and all
successor nodes thereof. It assigns a new device to a node
such that a maximum value of P+S for the nodes at each level
is minimized. The allocation unit adds a descriptor
representing a new polling signal to a node in a specified
level which has a minimum value of P+S. After adding a
descriptor to a node, the allocation unit alters values of S
for the node and all predecessor nodes thereof by adding the
bandwidth of the new polling signal represented by the
descriptor to the values of S, and alters values of P for
successor nodes thereof in accordance with the bandwidth of
the polling signal represented by the descriptor.
